    Absolutely worth seeing.
    There used to be a lot more towers.

    The two leaning towers - Torre degli Asinelli (the higher - 97.20 m) and Torre Garisenda (48 m) are a landmark of the city of Bologna. They are among the last approximately 20 surviving so-called gender towers, which were built in the 12th and 13th centuries by wealthy noble families. Originally there were probably up to 180 of them. The exact purpose is not clear - status symbol, withdrawal and Verteitugungsanlage.
    You can climb the Asinelli Tower.
